Urban Dog Bar: A Howling Good Time with LEA Professional Amplifiers

In the heart of Nashville, Tennessee, Urban Dog Bar — a unique off-leash dog park and bar with a pet-friendly patio and doggy play area — delivers an unforgettable experience for furry friends and their owners. After opening its doors last year, the Urban Dog Bar has been shaking up the city's entertainment scene with its series of dog-centric events, like the New Year's Eve Ball Drop featuring dropped tennis balls (pun intended) from the rooftop.

To create an audio system for this one-of-a-kind venue, the Urban Dog Bar team collaborated with Joseph Hazelwood, founder of Hazelwood Laboratories. They required audio capabilities for a wireless handheld mic, background music, TV audio, local zone control, and future accommodation for live music by DJs. Knowing LEA Professional's Connect Series amplifiers were more than up to the task, Hazelwood made it his go-to choice for every project.

The indoors of the Urban Dog Bar echo with tunes powered by Connect Series 354 amplifiers, while the outdoors resonate with the rhythm of the CS704s. The flexible CS354 amplifiers power the loudspeakers in the indoor bar, restrooms, and a side room, driving the high-quality sound sought after by the venue. The CS704s, on the other hand, provide the punch needed to power the outdoor bar and perimeter speakers around the play area. The Connect Series also offers LEA Cloud for simplified remote control and monitoring of the amplifiers, no matter the location or time of day.

Hazelwood extended custom HX wall controllers throughout the Urban Dog Bar, allowing staff to control zones, volume levels, and sources independently. By combining the tactile experience of analog hardware with the capabilities of smart technology, these unique audio controllers make it easy for staff to manage multiple zones and sources through API calls to the LEA amplifiers.

The Urban Dog Bar in Nashville, TN offers a unique and lively atmosphere, where dogs of all sizes set paws and tails wagging day after day. With the installation of LEA Professional’s Connect Series amplifiers, the venue now offers a sound experience that matches its spirited ambiance. "The Urban Dog Bar is an incredibly fun environment, and I'm confident LEA amplifiers were the perfect choice for this venue," said Hazelwood. "I can't wait to use them again in my next installation."
